The real WTF here is that Todd decided to use the fiber interface because he presumed there would be a slow down if he used the Ethernet interface.
Then the Universe found an interesting way of showing him not to do any extra work unless he needs to, because it may never pay off.

The real WTF is how many people totally blame the guy for not checking that trafic was being sent on the fiber.
Like it's the guy's fault for not checking that trafic sent to 10.0.3.44 was not actually going to 70.50.106.245. Cause that's what computers do, right?
"Uhm .. I get a reply from pinging 192.168.0.1, but I'm still not convinced we have a connection. Can you wait a minute for me to check a tcpdump. I need to be doubly sure."
